Adjusting Drive Control Levers
The RH and LH drive control levers can be adjusted up or down
and fore-and-aft for the comfort of the operator. Proper drive
control lever and seat adjustment will result in the following:
In the neutral position with hands on the control levers,
• Operator’s upper arms should be relaxed and
approximately vertical.
• Operator’s forearms should be approximately
horizontal.
In the full forward position,
• Operator’s back should stay in contact with the seat
back.
• Control levers should not contact operator’s legs.
In the full reverse position,
• Control levers should not contact the operator’s legs
or torso.
• Set the seat to the preferred operating position.
• Adjustment lever is located under the front edge of
the seat.
Check factory settings of control levers for the conditions listed
above.
NOTE: If control lever adjustments are required, height
adjustments should be made prior to angular adjustments.
